Demon Lord's Reincarnation

Chapter 455 - Spell Rifles

"I did say we came to talk to them, but these guys didn\'t want to talk," Ren answered while shrugging his shoulders.

"As expected of the muscle brain, everything leads back to you wanting to pick a fight." Valdel once again sighed as he spoke.

"Did your head get messed up after the beating I gave you? Maybe I should hit your head again to fix it."

"There you go again since you can\'t win in an argument with words you always go back to physical means."

"Oh you misunderstand, I can obviously beat you using my words only, but that would be too easy, and I pretty much prefer to use my fists."

While Ren and Valdel were having a heated discussion, Kor was busy moving the unconscious bodies of the knights to one side and trying to double-check if they were alright. When he noticed Mir, Kor signaled him to help.

Lara watched as the four of them did their separate things right in front of the enemy base. She couldn\'t help but smile at the scene as it reminded her of a lot of things.

\'This era\'s companions may be different from the last ones but they sure act the same way.\' Lara closed her eyes and remembered her past incarnations companions who fought alongside Rei Kuraki the Strongest Mortal Soul of the time.

They were a powerful group filled with the same energy as this group. They had many adventures together and had fought through a lot of obstacles, and in the end, they had failed. When Lara remembered those images of Tsukiyomi and the others she felt her heart hurting. She shook her head as she stopped thinking about it.

…

"Well anyway, now that we\'re all here how about we have a tour of the temple until someone is willing to talk to us." Ren stood in front of the Temple\'s tall doors which were decorated with rubies and gold.

\'This Temple truly is wealthy, maybe I should loot the place while I\'m at it.\' Ren was once again amazed by how wealthy the Temple of the Goddess of Light was. He tried to open the door but to his surprise, he couldn\'t.

"There seems to be some kind of enchantment on this door, I can\'t open it, how about you guys try."

The others then tried to open the door but to no avail. After everyone was done trying, Ren shouted.

"Hey open up! We just want to talk! If you don\'t open this door I will be forced to break it down. I\'m giving you by the count of three! If no one comes to open the door I will break it down!" Ren gathered Spirit Aura into his palm as he shouted.

"One!"

"Two!"

"Three!" Ren placed his palm onto the door and sent a wave of Spirit Aura which blasted out of his palm. The door which had multiple enchantments on it was forced open. Ren was astonished by the level of enhancement on the door, it was so sturdy. He was trying to destroy the door but it merely flung open.

As he was astonished by that fact Ren noticed that there were already people waiting for them beyond the door. At the end of the hallway, there were several dozen men holding a long metal object that had a hole pointed at them.

"Those are \'Spell Rifles\', we need to take cover!" When Ren heard the new term coming from Mir\'s mouth he became interested in what kind of weapon that was. Kor and Mir quickly hid at the back using a wall as cover, on the other hand, Ren, Valdel, and Lara simply looked at the so called Spell Rifles with interest.

"You people who are suspected to be part of the Terrorist Organization, Fangs of Katar, you either surrender now for questioning or we will be forced to shoot you down."

\'Oh, based on what he said and the look of the weapon, those Spell Rifles should be something like a miniaturized version of the mana cannons.\' Instead of complying with what the knight commander said, Ren responded by smugly smiling at them and gesturing for them to come.

When the Knight Commander saw Ren\'s actions he was infuriated. This person was looking down on them too much. The Knight Commander gnashed his teeth as he shouted.

"FIRE!"

When the knights heard the commander\'s order they quickly started firing. Ren, Valdel, and Lara who were enveloped by their mana shields were surprised by the speed of the attack from such a distance. Based on the mana fluctuation they felt from the knights, except for the knight commander most of the knights holding the weapon called the Spell Rifle didn\'t have strong mana. Yet the power and speed of the attack coming from the weapons they injected with their mana was ten times the amount they injected. Still, despite it being more powerful than they expected the attack wasn\'t able to penetrate their mana shields.

The knights who saw the outcome of their attack were stunned by what they saw. This was the first time they have seen the Spell Rifle\'s bullets which were created to pierce through one\'s mana shield unable to do what it was made to do.

"Oh, those are some interesting toys you have."

The knight commander who was shocked by what happened heard what Ren said and his anger grew.

"CONTINUOUS FIRE!"

The Knights then started firing at Ren and the others multiple times. As they were being bombarded by bullets, Valdel and Lara noticed that their mana shields were slowly being broken. Even Ren noticed some of the bullets actually getting past his mana shield. When he noticed that Ren couldn\'t help but smile that vicious smile of his.

"HAHAHA! So it finally happened, you guys finally figured out a way for the weak to pierce the heart of the strong! Now that you have the weapon that could pierce my heart, do you also have the shield to withstand my hand?"
